I say 'disposable' because it is relatively easy to refill these, again easier than other such pens, and once you start to think of them as reusable, they become an extraordinarily good value.
I use them on my work reports. Coworkers love the vibrant colors.
If you like a good pen, these will be great for you.
The worst thing is that they can't be left uncapped for long, but easily remedied and once you know that you give it the care it needs.
They bleed through the spiral-bound notebook papers you'd normally find.
On a blank(not lined) moleskine notebook paper, they do not bleed through the next sheet, but will definitely show on the back so you can't write on the back of the page.
On a 20lb A4 paper, they show a little less conspicuously on the back, but you can see what you wrote(except for the pink and red ones) and dots occasionally bleed through.
On a yellow legal pad - I forgot the brand name, but the sheets are one of the thicker ones - I see that it will be possible to write back-to-back thanks to the yellow color of the paper, but you can still see what's written on the other side so it will look a little messy.
They are thicker than Uniball Signo RT 0.7mm(gel pen), Bic Ultra Round Stic Grip (ball-point), and Papermate Liquid Flair Medium.
So, if you have a big handwriting/like thick pens, and plan to write on only one side of normal-to thick papers or to write on really thick and nice papers, these pens will be satisfactory. They are really smooth and have vivid, pretty colors after all.
But if you are like me and like to write small, or plan to take notes on the cheaper, commonly-used student notebooks or loose leaf papers, these will not be a good choice.
(I don't own other fountain pens so I don't know if this is a weakness in most fountain pens. I'm getting a Lamy Safari EF soon; I will update if I think a comparison would help.)
